Ingredients
- 4 ounces Sparkling Wine
- 1 1/2 ounces Blanco Tequila
- 1/2 oz Lime juice
- 4 pieces Strawberries to muddle
- 1/2 oz Agave Syrup
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberries:
- Rinse and hull the strawberries, then slice them into quarters. You’ll need enough to get a good muddle, about 3-4 large strawberries.
- Muddle the Strawberries:
- In a cocktail shaker, add the quartered strawberries and agave syrup.
- Muddle them together until the strawberries are well smashed and the syrup is mixed in, releasing all the juices.
- Mix the Cocktail:
- Add the blanco tequila and lime juice to the muddled strawberries and agave syrup.
- Fill the shaker with ice, covering the liquid.
- Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds to chill and combine the flavors.
- Strain and Serve:
- Strain the mixture into a glass filled with fresh ice to remove the strawberry pulp and seeds.
- Top off the glass with sparkling wine, gently stirring to integrate without losing too much carbonation.
- Garnish and Enjoy:
- Garnish with a strawberry slice on the rim of the glass or a few lime wheels for a decorative touch.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing mix of tequila, lime, and strawberry with the effervescence of sparkling wine
